In Andrew and Kirsty's primary school the chess club used to set up boards at parents nights and challenge the parents to a game of chess. There were a few disgruntled parents when they were beaten by primary school children :p I always thought it was a good way to introduce the school chess club to the families who attended the school.
A fun raising idea that we tried was to set up a giant chess set at the school fairs and charge £2 to play against one of the children from the school chess club. If the game was won by the challenger they got their money back but if the challenger lost then the money went to club/school funds.
